Running new 'set_flush_add_atomic_bitmap' test case for nftables.git
with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y yields:
net/netfilter/nft_set_bitmap.c:231 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
1 lock held by nft/4008:
#0: ffff888147f79cd8 (&nft_net->commit_mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid+0x2f/0xd0
lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0x116/0x160
nft_bitmap_walk+0x22d/0x240
nf_tables_delsetelem+0x1010/0x1a00
..
This is a false positive, the list cannot be altered while the
transaction mutex is held, so pass the relevant argument to the iterator.
Fixes tag intentionally wrong; no point in picking this up if earlier
false-positive-fixups were not applied.
Fixes: 28b7a6b84c ("netfilter: nf_tables: avoid false-positive lockdep splats in set walker")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
